Right now I have something that kind of works - The lines are connected thru 32 ohm resistors on the color and sync signals, which works, but there's a shadow on the text and a bright border on right edges that makes everything look rather fuzzy and is a strain on the eyeballs... Almost like the cable isn't sheilded properly, tho I know it is. Anyone have any ideas? Could the signals be crossing over in the cable? Do I need a lower capacitance cable? Higher resistors? The signal is at about .6 volts now, if I go lower it gets pretty dim on the screen... Thanks for any suggestions ! Also - has anyone used the Omni box with the Nec 3d? Does it work? Maybe that's the easy way out of this... ------ Rick Mills {gargoyle.uchicago.edu,uunet.uu.net,spl1,ddsw1}!jpusa1!rick -- rick
